The Sting (Universal, 1974). International One Sheet (27" X
41").
In this sublime work of art directed by George Roy Hill, con
artists Johnny Hooker (Robert Redford) and Henry Gondorff (Paul
Newman) team up to avenge the death of a mutual friend killed by
the mob, their mark being the all powerful Doyle Lonnegan (Robert
Shaw). An intriguing tale of the 1930s Chicago underworld, no one
is to be trusted, and as the plot unfolds, the movie's many twists
and turns lead to what many consider to be the greatest double
cross of all times. With one of the most memorable screen duos,
Newman and Redford, an incredible ensemble cast of colorful
characters played by Charles Durning, Harold Gould, Eileen Brennan
and Ray Walston, to name a few, and an unforgettable music score,
all the elements come together in perfect harmony to create an
amazing gem of a film. This very rare international one sheet, done
in the stylish Art Deco look that was so popular during the 1930s,
showcases the stars with incredibly stylish simplicity. The poster
has edge wear, light creasing in the top border, some very minor
creasing in the image area, and a tear in the top border with
archival tape on the verso, none of which detracts from the
stunning elegance of this piece. Rolled, Very Fine-.
